The Fairy Bow trades vanilla-bow feel for a faster, tighter shot and full support for the mod’s Fairy Arrows. You make one at a Sword Shrine rather than at a crafting table.
Fairy Bow
Fairy ArrowHow to obtain one
Place a regular Bow on an empty Sword Shrine, then use a bottled Healing Fairy on it. The shrine replaces the bow with a Fairy Bow and returns an empty Hylian Bottle. It copies the existing bow’s components except its attributes.

Supported enchantments
Power, Punch, Flame, Infinity, Unbreaking, and Mending are supported by the committed implementation and generated enchantment tags.
Infinity can preserve normal arrows, but Fairy Arrows still get consumed. This is implemented, not a pending design decision.
Ammunition
In Survival, you need a supported arrow. Creative players can fire without carrying ammo. For the magic-powered homing behavior, see Fairy Arrow.
Why won’t my bow fire?
Check that you have ammunition and that durability is above its last point. The bow intentionally becomes unusable at that point rather than disappearing.
